Just a few days ago a new PSP firmware, version 6.61, has been released by Sony. After taking the firmware apart, we were able to check if the firmware 6.61 patches the 6.60 exploits…And it does not. All the signed content is still working (Homebrews, fake signed ISOs, sign_np signed ISOs) and so is the HBL, at least if you use the VHBL builds, instead of the old 6.60 XMB HBL build. The most important things, the Custom Firmwares and the downgrader, are, as of now, not working on firmware 6.61. But dont worry, it does not look like that the firmware 6.61 changed that much, which therefore means that the CFWs can easily be updated for firmware 6.61. Through a few dirty tricks it is possible to install a cIPL CFW (those for the PSP 1000s & non-88v3 2000s) on firmware 6.61 as of now, but it is worth to mention that the 6.60 CFWs are not fully working on firmware 6.61. The custom firmwares are currently being updated for the new firmware 6.61, so that a properly working 6.61 CFW can be released in near future. It is currently unknown if the downgrader will be updated for firmware 6.61, but we think that someone will do it, eventually.

After confirming that the Firmware 6.61 has barely changed (compared to firmware 6.60), developer Qwikrazor has updated the Pro CFW (partly) and the 6.60 Downgrader (once again, partly) to support the firmware 6.61.
The ME & LME CFWs are currently being updated as well.
If you ask why I wrote partly behind the PRO CFW and Downgrader, then you’re asking the right questions.
At first the PRO CFW: I said partly because Qwikrazor did not update the cIPL Installer for the PRO CFW (only supports PSP 1000s & non-88v3 2000s), which means there is not “full CFW” for firmware 6.61 as of now.
PRO CFW should properly work as a temporary CFW on any PSP (be it a 1000, 2000, any of the different 3000s, an E1000 or the Go), though.
Now about the downgrader. The downgrader is capable of downgrading PSPs from firmware 6.61 to a lower firmware, but it is currently not capable of downgrading from 6.61 to 6.60.
You will have to downgrade to 6.39 and then update to 6.60, if you really want to return to firmware 6.60.
Since the PSP E1000 can only install the firmwares (6.50 as pre-installed, no installer available) 6.60 and 6.61, and the downgrader can not downgrade to 6.60, it (the PSP E1000) is currently not supported by the 6.61 downgrader.
Thats pretty much it. We expect that the PRO CFW cIPL Flasher will be fixed in the future, and a newer version of the downgrader be available soon~ish.
If you prefer the ME or LME CFW, then be patient, since it is already being updated to firmware 6.61. No words about the 6.60 HEN, though.
Here is PRO-C2 for 6.60 and 6.61 from the latest commit on the Pro CFW repo, 16-12-2014.
The CIPL flasher is left out intentionally for 6.61 (causes a brick).
Files named with the commit date from the Pro CFW repo.

This is a mod (hex edited) of the 6.60 Chronoswitch Downgrader by Davee/some1.
I only tested it on a 1k model, I couldn't downgrade to 6.60 from 6.61 (maybe corrupt updater), but I was able to downgrade to 5.00 from 6.61, 6.20+ might work, haven't tested it though.

Sony has revealed which games and DLC on the PlayStation Store were big hits last year, with Destiny and Minecraft topping the rankings.
Posted on the US PlayStation Blog, the charts show that Activision's sci-fi shooter Destiny attracted the most downloads on PS4, with ever-popular block-building hit Minecraft the most popular digital purchase on PS3.
While the PS4 Top Ten was dominated by blockbusters – Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, The Last of Us Remastered and Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor among them – the PS3 rankings saw the addition of more niche titles, including post-apocalyptic animal simulation oddity Tokyo Jungle, which outsold games including Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and South Park: The Stick of Truth.
Destiny recreated its success over in the Add-On charts, with the title's Expansion Pass taking the Number One spot for PS4. Its first full expansion, The Dark Below, placed fourth. Extra content for Battlefield and Call of Duty rounded out the Top Five.
Meanwhile, on PS3, past iterations in the Call of Duty series filled the rankings, with packs for 2012's Black Ops II and 2013's Ghosts occupying all places bar one. Story-driven expansion Left Behind for The Last of Us plugged the gap at number three.
Shrinking down to the Vita handheld, the chart appears to reveal the console's strength as a platform for more niche titles. Japanese RPG Sword Art Online -Hollow Fragment- was the top-selling game for the whole of 2014, placing ahead of the portable version of Minecraft.
The PlayStation Store also plays host to a collection of Sony's past hits, in the form of PlayStation and PS2 'Classics'.
In a year ripe with Grand Theft Auto V news, it is perhaps no surprise that Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was the most popular throwback title. Rockstar's 2004 crime opus was followed by a trilogy of past Naughty Dog titles – Crash Bandicoot, Crash Bandicoot 2 and Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped.
The ever-popular epic RPG Final Fantasy VII placed ninth, with a remastered version of the game announced for PS4 at Sony's PlayStation Experience event.

Want a PS4 and an Xbox One, but don't have the space in your entertainment center? Enter the PlayBox. The laptop-style console mod, created by serial tinkerer Eddie Zarick, crams both systems into a single design, complete with a 22-inch, 1080p display. It's not sleek, but seems perfectly playable despite a few shortcomings. For instance, to keep its innards cool you can't have both consoles powered on simultaneously. Zarick says he's also had trouble with the PS4's capacitive power button, although you can always get around it by pressing the PS nub on Sony's DualShock 4 controller. Unfortunately, the Playbox was a special commission, so you're unlikely to lay your hands on one. Still, if you're desperate for something similar, you could always request a follow-up -- maybe challenge Zarick to throw a Wii U in there too?

The PS4’s ability to play games from any region could be the cause of its sudden delay in China, reports have suggested.
Kotaku says that Chinese reports suggest that the delay, announced just days before its proposed Chinese launch on January 11th, is due to complaints that the console’s ability to play games purchased in any region will make it easy for buyers to play titles not approved by the strict Chinese regime.
One Chinese forum has even reposted what it claims is a copy of a government report form expressing concern that the potential importing of non-approved games “may bring harm to our nation” and requesting that “Sony China be punished for these anti-China actions”.
Although the region status of Chinese consoles has not yet been explicitly specified, review units sent out to the Chinese press were, like all other PS4s, able to play games from any region, including its more liberal-minded neighbour Hong Kong.
Sony president and Group CEO Andrew House has previously blamed the delay on a “government requested for a re-evaluation of Sony's business plans”.
The company is yet to announce a new release date for the machine in China and has been offering refunds to those who have already pre-ordered it.

Sony has cut the price of DriveClub’s PlayStation Plus Edition Full Game Upgrade to £19.99 on PSN.
The game had until now been available for £34.99 to PS+ members, which is now the price of the full game to non PS+ members.
The Full Game Upgrade was initially designed to let those who had downloaded the free PS+ version of the game pay to access all of the content reserved for the full game.
However, the Free PS+ Edition remains missing in action, three months after the game’s release - although it is not required to run the Upgrade version.
The taster was to include ten cars and five tracks from the full game. However, when DriveClub launched to significant technical problems fears arose that the free version would be delayed. And it was – indefinitely – and we’re yet to hear anything beyond vague assertions that the free version is still on both Evolution’s and Sony’s roadmap.
At least owners of the full game are now able to enjoy a fully functional title.

Peripheral manufacturer Nyko unveiled its upcoming Data Bank accessory at CES this week, promising users a cheap and easy way to upgrade their PlayStation 4's storage capacity using a standard 3.5-inch desktop computer hard drive.
A year into the console's lifespan, PlayStation 4 owners may find themselves running short of space on the platform's included 500GB hard drive. While the PS4's stock drive can be swapped out with a larger-capacity 2.5-inch hard drive intended for laptops, upgrading can prove costly, given the increased price of 2.5-inch drives compared to 3.5-inch models.
Nyko's Data Bank sits atop the PlayStation 4 after partially removing the console's casing, and draws on the PS4's AC adapter to power an attached 3.5-inch hard drive. Nyko tells IGN that it's aiming for a "$30-$40 price range" for the peripheral. Compatible hard drives are sold separately.

A number of big retailers have cut $20 off the price of the PlayStation TV in the US.
VG247 reports that Amazon, GameSpot and Best Buy have all cut the $100 entry-level SKU to $80 while the $140 value bundle has been reduced to $100. It doesn’t appear to be an official price drop, although who knows what deals are being offered by official distributors.
In the UK PlayStation TV still retails for the £84.99 it launched at on November 14th.
The device, which was rebranded after initially being unveiled as the PlayStation Vita TV, is still lacking many features in the West compared to the services Sony has tied up in Japan.

A new hardware add-on for PS4 allows users to install high-capacity larger 3.5-inch hard drives into their consoles.
The Nyko Data Bank plugs into the left hand side of the console and, for the price of some aesthetically bulkier but still stylistically consistent heft, lets owners insert a hard drive of their choosing, potentially drastically increasing the current 500GB storage limit.
Until now PS4 owners had been limited to using 2.5-inch laptop hard drives (unless of course they were willing to jump through a number of technical hoops detailed online) which are typically more expensive and offer less storage than 3.5-inch models.
External hard drives are already supported by the console but cannot be used for things such as game installations and save data. The Data Bank bypasses these restrictions as the console views the storage as ‘internal’.
Nyko has also revealed a Type Pad extension for the DualShock 4 which offers a full physical keyboard. Both devices are due out in the first half of this year.

PlayStation owners are once again today experiencing trouble accessing PSN.
“We're aware that some players are seeing drops on PSN,” the official PlayStation Twitter feed said. “Engineers are on the case and investigating.”
Both PSN and Xbox Live were rocked by a prolonged stint of downtime over Christmas, leading to Sony to offer some free subscription extensions and store discounts. There’s no word yet on the reason for the current problems.
The group behind PSN’s Christmas attack has subsequently said it would not disrupt the service again, with VentureBeatclaiming that the decision was made after controversialMegaupload founder Kim Dotcom offered all members of the hacking group responsible free lifetime membership to his new Mega service.
However, the site reports that the same group has also launched a DDoS service that allows anyone to rent the power to bring down online networks for as little as $6 a month.
All of which means that all major gaming network providers must as a matter of priority develop means to protect their services from such attacks. Both PSN and Xbox Live are integral parts of the PlayStation and Xbox offer.
Not only does downtime infuriate paying subscribers but prolonged incidents of the likes seen over Christmas – coupled with a spate of technically troubled games hitting the market in Q4 last year – could potentially have a crippling effect on the long-term health of the console market.
